Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster
Ayşe,Ali,Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul.Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families,they are all beset by similar woes:money crunch,joblessness,social isolation.In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries,these are minor problems,‘slight disasters’,but they are all-consuming,at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night.However,Umut Subasi’s first feature,Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster,is not a melodrama.With an appealingly light touch,it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end,one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance.This is a world where astrology,the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements.Fittingly,the film is structured around chance and coincidence,with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation,as though there were no world outside this small social bubble.With self-aware,frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour,Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media,one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires.源自:https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
